Section XX

Zhu Yuqing frowned and took a small sip of porridge before putting down the bowl. Wu Ming was very nervous, looked at her and said, "What, isn't it delicious?" ”

"It seems to be burned a little mushy, probably because Xiaoyun is hairy and has added more firewood." She looked at Wu Ming, who looked embarrassed: "Why don't I go and do something for you, you finally got home, but you can't deal with it like this." ”

She said, struggling to get to her feet. Wu Ming touched his nose, grabbed her and said with a dry smile: "Hehe, don't blame Xiaoyun, I made the porridge in the morning." You used to serve me every day, and I wanted to repay your personal favor, but I messed things up......"

Zhu Yuqing's eyes lit up, and he pursed his lips and smiled: "Between us, what else do you talk about human affection, it's true." Having said that, she scooped a new bowl of porridge and drank it beautifully.

Watching beautiful women eat is a kind of enjoyment, and watching well-educated beauties eat is even more pleasing to the eye. Seeing Zhu Yuqing drinking porridge there, Wu Ming was in a trance for a while, and almost regarded her as He Yi again. These two people are too similar, if it weren't for some differences in personality, even Wu Ming would almost treat them as the same person. He looked at Zhu Yuqing and said suddenly: "Xiaoqing, there is something I have to discuss with you." ”

Zhu Yuqing raised his little face, which was still a little pale, looked at him and said, "What? ”

"Xiaoyun's boss is not small, I want to help her be a matchmaker, the object is Yang Yi, do you think it's feasible?"

Zhu Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's naturally feasible, but it depends on what the two of them mean, the twisted melon is not sweet, you love Lord Yang, but I also treat Xiaoyun as a sister." ”

Wu Ming nodded and said, "This is natural, because of this, you still need to recognize Xiaoyun as a sister, so as not to wronged her in the future." "Yang Yi has such an achievement now, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not marry another person in the future, let Zhu Yuqing recognize Xiaoyun as a sister, so that the Ruling Mansion is equivalent to her mother's family, as long as Wu Ming does not fall, she will not have to worry about being angry in the future.

Zhu Yuqing was stunned again, and immediately reacted, saying: "It's naturally feasible, you think really well." She glanced at Wu Ming and said with a pun: "You have more and more ghost ideas now." ”

This marriage method, others may not be able to see so far, but Zhu Yuqing's heart is as careful as a hair, how can it be unclear? The husband and wife were talking, when Xiaohui said outside: "My lord, General Wei asks to see you." ”

Wu Ming was stunned and couldn't help but say, "General Wei, that General Wei?" ”

Xiaohui said respectfully outside: "It's the deputy commander of the forbidden army's yamen......" Seeing that Wu Ming was still at a loss, Zhu Yuqing coughed lightly and explained: "Ah Ming, now the commander of the forbidden army's yamen is General Xie Lao, and the deputy commander is General Wei Huwei." ”

Wei Hu? Hearing Zhu Yuqing say this, Wu Ming remembered it. This Wei Hu is good at sycophants, every time he sees himself, he always has to shoot a few words, one or two or two, and he also has some impressions. Since the two met, although the relationship is not deep, Wei Hu's ability is not good, and Wu Ming has a good impression of him. He looked at the sky, and the morning sun rose, only a faint glow of glow on the window lattice. The summer day dawned early, and now it is estimated that it has not even been a good hour, this Wei Hu came so early, why did he come to find him?

Zhu Yuqing looked at Wu Ming with a thoughtful face: "General Wei is quite capable, and he was very good in the Second Battle of Hanning, he must have had a last resort when he came to you so early, why not see it?" ”

Wu Ming nodded, and said loudly to Xiao Hui outside: "You go and sue General Wei and ask him to wait." Just say I'll be there soon. ”

When he packed up and walked to the living room, he saw Wei Hu walking around in it with his hands behind his back. As soon as he saw Wu Ming coming, he immediately greeted him and said, "Oh, Lord Wu, you are here." ”

Wu Ming couldn't help but smile and said, "General Wei came really early......

Wei Hu said with a bitter face: "The general has returned from a great victory, and all parties are looking sideways. The Commander's Mansion is the focus, and the matter of welcoming the send-off is also doubly concerned, and I don't want to be the first bird. ”

Wu Ming was dumbfounded, only then did he find that Wei Hu was dressed in civilian clothes. On the desk next to it, there was a cup of steaming tea, and a big black felt hat was placed next to it, which covered the whole face when he wore it. I guess this guy really came from the side door sneaking in. He turned his face, pointed to his seat, and said, "General Wei, please sit down and speak." ”

The two sat down separately, and someone had already re-served tea, Wu Ming took a sip and said, "Commander Wei came here in the early morning, I don't know what happened. ”

Seeing Wu Ming, Wei Hu calmed down a little, and he also took a sip of tea and said, "Lord Wu, you can save me." To tell you the truth, I'm here to seek refuge, and if you don't, I'll be gone. ”

Wu Ming looked at the sky and said with some surprise: "Why did General Wei say this." The Northern Han Dynasty was newly defeated, Nanning was guarded by hundreds of thousands of troops, and it was like an iron bucket. ”

Wei Hu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "What General Wu said, although it is not true, it is not far away. Speaking of which, it is this deputy commander who causes harm. He sighed and said: "When I was not the deputy commander, I tried my best to drill the camp, but when I really sat up, I realized that this position was hot, and it was very hot, and my ass was too small to sit down at all." ”

He was in a certain state of mind, and he regained his witty personality, and his speech was a little funny. Wu Ming vaguely guessed something, and said with a smile: "Why did General Wei say this?" ”

Wei Hu Zhengse said: "In the second battle of Hanning, the forbidden army yamen made a huge contribution, and after expansion and rectification, there are now 50,000 yawei, which is already a big force. I neither belong to the prime minister, nor have I ever stood on the side of the queen mother, and being this deputy commander is like sitting on pins and needles. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's mutual restraints, it is estimated that they would have been worn to pieces by the two major forces a long time ago, and there would be no scum left. He smiled bitterly, and continued: "I disturbed people early in the morning, as I said just now, I do seek the protection of Lord Wu, as long as you come forward to speak for me, the Prime Minister and the Empress Dowager will definitely not dare to act rashly." ”

I see. The former deputy commander was naturally the person on the prime minister's side. Since Ma Xianlin lost his command, this position has become more and more important, and the Queen Mother fought for him, naturally wanting the entire forbidden army yamen to listen to her and maintain its purity. The prime minister naturally wooed him, and naturally wanted to take back a city, lest this forbidden army yamen become Tao Yu's hall. As soon as he arrived in Nanning yesterday, he was forced to be unrequited by the two forces, and it is commendable that Wei Hu can drag on until now. He almost laughed at the thought of this.

In this way, Wei Hu is surrendering. After returning to Nanning, Wu Ming also considered that some officials would secretly move closer to him, but he never expected that he would be such a big fish. He thought about it for a while, and then said slowly: "Why did General Wei say this, Wu is a small official, and he has no right to speak in the court. Besides, the Queen Mother has the Son of Heaven in hand, the prime minister occupies a favorable location, and has been operating in the court for many years. No matter who the two are, they are all giants. As he spoke, there seemed to be a light in his eyes, and he stared at Wei Hu and said, "Who is the general looking for, but he likes Wu?" ”

Regardless of whether what Wei Hu said is true or not, he must always find out what he really thinks. Besides, after several years of hardship, although Wu Ming is young, he has grown up in the flames of war and conspiracy, and he is not only sleek, but also much more cautious, how can he be gullible?

Wei Hu still smiled bitterly: "I knew the general would say so." He paused, and then said: "The Prime Minister and the Queen Mother are powerful, but it is true. Could it be that General Wu thinks that Wei has neither identity nor background? In the end, he was able to climb to the position of deputy commander, was it by patting on the back? No, at least in terms of observing words and feelings, few people can compare with Wei. Otherwise, how can you do what you like and shoot people's ass? If that's the case, once you get on the horse's leg, it's not very good. Although the Prime Minister and Empress Dowager are majestic, both of them are scheming people, and the closer they get to them, the more secrets they know, the more dangerous they are. Once successful, with their temper, it is inevitable that they will not make the act of unloading the mill and killing the donkey, which is also the reason why Wei is reluctant to stand in line. ”

Wu Ming laughed, took another sip of tea and said, "General Wei is so sure, Wu is not this kind of person?" It can be known that the human heart is separated from the belly ......"

Before he finished speaking, Wei Hu had already smiled, and said with a straight face: "Although Wei does not have a deep relationship with the general, he knows people very accurately and knows the general well. ”

Wu Ming's eyebrows jumped: "Oh, is it?" ”

Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Wei Fang explained: "Do you remember when you and I first met? ”

As soon as he mentioned this, Wu Ming finally couldn't be indifferent, sighed and said: "Naturally remember, it was four years ago, when Tian Team was still alive, he took the boat, and wanted to save his wife Xiaobi at night." It was General Wei who was accommodating and asked me to chase him back from the ship. ”

Wei Hu looked up at the sky and sighed: "Yes, at that time, the Northern Han Dynasty was powerful, and it was very dangerous to travel overnight. But General Wu can work so hard for his subordinates, which shows his importance. At that time, I thought that if I could find a boss like General Wu to serve as an errand boy under his command, it would be a blessing. ”

Wu Ming's heart moved. So that's the case, then it's no wonder. Wei Hu continued: "When Princess Mengning married in the north, the general knew that he couldn't do anything, but he still fought hard. And although Mei Ji is a dusty woman, the general can openly conflict with Zuo Changshi for her, and he does not hesitate to offend the prime minister, but the person who asks for it is not a woman. These are my own experiences, not hearsay. From these things, it can be seen that the general's affection is very important. Now that the Empress Dowager is persecuted too much, I can no longer survive in the cracks, since I want to choose a master, I Wei Hu naturally likes the general, who values love and righteousness. ”

Do I value love and righteousness, Wu Ming glanced at Wei Hu and slowly stood up. Looking back, many things have become a thing of the past, and it is even unbearable to mention again. If it was the current self, he might still be desperate to rescue Tian Hong, but if he wanted to shout for Xuanyuan Ling in the court as before, it was impossible to do useless work in vain.

He glanced at Wei Hu and couldn't help but smile bitterly. What I never expected was that these seemingly useless things had accumulated so much political capital for themselves. The ancients said well: "A good man will be rewarded after all." People are doing it, and the sky is watching. Now it seems that there is some truth to it.

Seeing that he was still silent, Wei Hu couldn't help but be a little nervous: "What, Lord Wu doesn't want to?" ”

Wu Ming smiled and said, "General Wei looks up to me, that's Wu's honor." I will support you in public, and you will have to worry a lot about Nanning in the future. ”

Although Wu Ming had heavy troops, there were not many people in the court. The presence of this deputy commander in Nanning has somewhat made up for the gap in this regard. Once there is something going on in Nanning, I don't want to hide it from him anymore. Since Wei Hu's surrender is true, he naturally has no reason to refuse.
